Photo Number 867

This is a CdV from the third Antique Shop in Dorset Minnesota.

We know nothing about this gentleman. I bought the photo because I liked his fat tie. I also noted that just the top button on his coat was fastened. So now I can place that along with the fat tie and stand up collar in the early 1880’s. This CdV also has rounded corners which points to the 1880’s and later.

W. E. Nelson was a photo artist in Lake City, Minnesota from 1882 to 1883.

Welcome!

This is my place for photos that have been forgotten and left behind. A look into the past. They were in a couple of boxes in an Antique shop..I couldn't resist them. I now search Antique Shops and Garage sales for old photos. If possible I like to return them to family. There are links to older Full Circles at the bottom of this page :)
